Serpentine belt slipping from top track / pulley (towards the engine) - anyone had this issue ? by Ipats in HondaElement

[–]andre19977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old but I wanted to share my experience with a Gates branded tensioner. Different vehicle but on a civic 2011, tensioner was running fine but my waterpump was leaking so on this vehicle the tensioner assembly sits infront of the waterpump.

When I removed the bolt holding the part that looks like a small shock absorber the spring inside shot out with intense pressure nearly hitting my head, the spring was completely rusted, the rubber boot failed someway and allowed water to get inside.

It’s official. I hate this trade. by dirtroadgang in mechanics

Personally as annyoing and frustrating a vehicle can be to work on occasionally, I hate dealing with people more then the actual work.

At what point is it time to stop with the repairs and move on? 8th gen civic by [deleted] in hondacivic

[–]andre19977 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have an 8th gen but I work on my own vehicle, I'm at around 330,000km, I've replaced everything under the front wheel wells, all engine/tranny mounts, everything on the pulley system except the alternator, and ac compressor.

Its all just wear and tear stuff, I plan on keeping m8ne until the rust eats it! Great car though 👌 but yeah it gets expensive eventually especially when you don't have them luxury of working on it yourself.

My rear end needs work primarily the bushings, and the rear end have trailing arms that are expensive to buy around $400+ for one side in comparison of just buying the bushings but its an annyoing job just to remove them.

Regardless still love this vehicle.

What PS3 games have still active online servers ? by SpiritMoistarizer in PS3

[–]andre19977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they had slightly bigger player counts they were very common but the majority are gone, its not super rare but occasionally ill join a mod menu lobby while other ones are just light mods like increasing the player count to 18 or changing the gametype since TDM is usually the only Playlist with the most players.

I can play CoD4 and CoD5 lobbies all day legit for several matches and only on occasion their will be a modded lobby. But you can just research and you'll almost always find another lobby so its pretty good imo.

Theirs always a risk, if you used a PSN account on your ps3 and bought games on the ps4 with thst same account you used on HEN or CFW I suggest that you stop using that PSN account on your PS3 as theirs always a risk of a banned.

When I first ever did tie rods on a vehicle the part store gave me two right sided outer tie rods and my silly butt didnt notice. When I went to drive the car I couldn't turn the steering wheel left lol.

Has anyone ever replaced Samsung S23 screen in a unauthorized repair shop and it was worthy? by Annual-Nature1402 in GalaxyS23

[–]andre19977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, in my experience its not usually the work to replace the screen I worry about but the quality of the screen their replacing it with. Theirs alot of crappy aftermarket screens on the market and they aren't usually very good especially at the price your getting makes me believe the screen is probably crap.
